In many cases, the end of the year gives you time to step back and take stock of the last 12 months. This is when many of us take a hard look at what worked and what did not, complete performance reviews, and formulate plans for the coming year. For me, it is all of those things plus a time when I u...

Deltek, Inc. today announced that KTS Events, an event management and
consulting firm based in the UK, has chosen the cloud ERP solution Deltek
First to better manage its projects, reduce administration time and
better service its clients.

KTS Events, located in Milton Keynes UK, is a fast-growing event
management and consulting firm. As a full service event design and
production agency, KTS Events offers local, nationwide and international
corporate event services.

KTS Events reached a point where running its business using Excel
spreadsheets was not enough to efficiently service its clients and
manage its many diverse projects. The company needed a solution that
could help it improve the visibility of its entire project lifecycle,
from bidding on new projects to successfully delivering those projects
for its customers. Built specifically for fast-growing professional
services firms, Deltek First was the perfect match for KTS Events
because it offered world-class, industry-specific capabilities with the
low cost and ease of use of the cloud. With the purchase of Deltek
First, KTS Events will improve the way it services its clients and
deliver its projects. In addition, KTS Events will reduce administration
substantially because it no longer needs to rely on manually updating
multiple spreadsheets on a daily basis. With these measurable
improvements delivered by Deltek First, KTS Events will streamline its
operations and have a platform that can scale with the company as it
grows its business.

“Deltek First will improve how we manage our projects, reduce our
administration time and ultimately help us service our clients in a
better way. We have used Excel spreadsheets and Sage to support us
previously but it took too much manual time for us to run our business
with disparate systems and did not support our time-driven business
processes. With Deltek First, we get a solution which requires no IT
resources from our part and which is fully integrated and supports our
project-based business process and growth in an optimal way. We have
always kept a careful eye on how we perform for our clients and with
Deltek First we get a solution that helps us both in supporting our
existing customers and will aid us in finding and working with new
ones,” said Katie Savage, Managing Director, KTS Events.

“We are excited to welcome KTS Events to our fast-growing list of Deltek
First customers around the world that are leveraging the advantages of
the cloud to power their businesses,” said Neil Davidson, Managing
Director, Deltek UK. “It is in our DNA to make software solutions for
project-focused and time-driven companies such as KTS Events. With
Deltek First, we offer an affordable and scalable cloud solution which
is tailor-made for fast growing professional services firms. We look
forward to supporting KTS Events’ growth as they get an even better
visibility of their entire project flow and can focus on their core
business, namely servicing their clients.”
